In 2000, Sia signed to Sony Music's sub-label Dance Pool and released her second studio album, Healing Is Difficult, the following year. Displeased with the promotion of the record, she signed to Go! Beat and released her third studio album, Colour the Small One, in 2004. The project struggled to connect with a mainstream audience, and so Sia relocated to New York City in 2005 and began touring across the United States. She released her fourth and fifth studio releases, Some People Have Real Problems and We Are Born, in 2008 and 2010, respectively. She then took a hiatus from performing, during which she focused on songwriting for other artists. Her catalogue includes the successful collaborations "Titanium" (with David Guetta), "Diamonds" (with Rihanna) and "Wild Ones" (with Flo Rida).
In 2014, Sia released her sixth studio album 1000 Forms of Fear, which debuted at No 1 in the U.S. Billboard 200 and generated the top-ten breakthrough single "Chandelier" and a trilogy of music videos starring child dancer Maddie Ziegler. In 2016, she released her seventh studio album This Is Acting, which spawned her first Hot 100 number one single, "Cheap Thrills". The same year, Sia gave her Nostalgic for the Present Tour, which incorporated performance art elements. Sia has received an array of accolades, including ARIA Awards and an MTV Video Music Award.
Thunderclouds
Sia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One old man is enough
Babe, you got it wrong
Just turn your fears into trust, to trust
Where'd the love go?
When all is said and done
Hey now, put your hands in the air
Where'd the love go?
Put the running into run
You asking me to stay
But I never met a girl I could trust
You're sayin' those words like you hate me now (wo-oah)
Our house is burning when you're raisin' hell (wo-oah)
Here in the ashes your soul cries out (a-a-ah)
But don't be afraid of these thunderclouds
These thunderclouds, oh, no
These thunderclouds, oh, no, no
All I need is love (da-dum, dum, dum)
All I need is a word (da-dum, dum, dum)
All I need is us (da-dum, dum, dum)
You turned nouns into verbs, to verbs
Where did love go?
When all is said and done
Hey now, put your hands in the air
I'ma go through your stuff
Where did love go?
You put the running into run
You're asking me to stay
But I never met a man I could trust
You're sayin' those words like you hate me now (wo-oah)
Our house is burning when you're raisin' hell (wo-oah)
Here in the ashes your soul cries out (a-a-ah)
But don't be afraid of these thunderclouds
These thunderclouds, oh, no
These thunderclouds, oh, no, no
These thunderclouds, oh, no
These thunderclouds, oh, no, no
These thunderclouds, oh oh
These thunderclouds, oh oh oh
These thunderclouds
Oh
Sia's Thunderclouds is a beautiful ballad that encourages listeners to trust amidst difficult situations. The opening lines, "All I need is one, one old man is enough, babe, you got it wrong, just turn your fears into trust, to trust," tell us that we don't need a crowd to stand by us. One person who believes in us is enough. Sometimes, we allow our fears to take over and cloud our judgment. The song advises us to turn our fears into trust. We should be confident and believe that things will turn out okay.
The chorus "Where'd the love go? When all is said and done. Hey now, put your hands in the air. I'ma go through your stuff. Where'd the love go? Put the running into run. You asking me to stay, but I never met a girl I could trust" is a beautiful expression of heartbreak. The lyrics speak of love lost and the difficulties that come with holding on to a relationship that does not work. The question of where the love went when everything is said and done speaks volumes to the pain one feels when they are not loved anymore. Despite the sadness, the chorus tells us not to be afraid of "these thunderclouds" that represent the difficulties life brings.
The bridge, "You're sayin' those words like you hate me now. Our house is burning when you're raisin' hell. Here in the ashes, your soul cries out. But don't be afraid of these thunderclouds," uses metaphors to describe the pain that one feels when they are breaking up with someone they love. You feel like your world is burning down, and your soul cries out, but the song asks us not to be afraid of these thunderclouds because they will eventually pass.
Line by Line Meaning
All I need is one
I only require a single thing
One old man is enough
Even just one individual is sufficient
Babe, you got it wrong
You have failed to comprehend correctly
Just turn your fears into trust, to trust
Transform your apprehensions into reliance
Where'd the love go?
What happened to the affection?
When all is said and done
After everything that has been said and done
Hey now, put your hands in the air
Now raise your hands up high
I'ma go through your stuff
I'm going to inspect your belongings
Put the running into run
Add some speed to your movements
You asking me to stay
You're requesting me to remain
But I never met a girl I could trust
I have never encountered a female who was trustworthy
You're sayin' those words like you hate me now (wo-oah)
You're speaking those phrases as if you despise me
Our house is burning when you're raisin' hell (wo-oah)
Our residence is in flames while you are creating chaos
Here in the ashes your soul cries out (a-a-ah)
In these ruins, your spirit wails out
But don't be afraid of these thunderclouds
Do not fear these ominous clouds
All I need is love (da-dum, dum, dum)
I solely require affection
All I need is a word (da-dum, dum, dum)
I only need a single expression
All I need is us (da-dum, dum, dum)
I simply need the two of us
You turned nouns into verbs, to verbs
You transformed nouns into action words
You put the running into run
You added speed to the act of running
But I never met a man I could trust
I have never come across a male that was trustworthy
These thunderclouds, oh, no
These ominous clouds, oh no
These thunderclouds, oh, no, no
These ominous clouds, oh no, no
These thunderclouds, oh oh
These ominous clouds, oh oh
These thunderclouds, oh oh oh
These ominous clouds, oh oh oh
